I purchased this car used after I had my fourth child. I bought it thinking that I needed the extra seating. It has been one of the best vehicles I have ever owned. In the four years I have owned this vehicle, I have had no significant mechanical problems. In fact, I haven't had to change a single part. Only things that are made to wear out like tires and brakes. We have two seats in the middle row. Some of these vehicles come with a middle-bench seat. I originally wanted the two seats, but now I would like to put in bench seats. With my whole family in the vehicle, we have room for one extra passenger. If we installed a bench seat, we would have room for two additional passengers. This is a great family vehicle. It comes with a built-in DVD player and dual screens. The kids can wear headphones and watch a movie in the back while you listen to your music in the front. It also comes with OnStar, which I don't subscribe to. But it's there if you need it. Another nice feature is the heated seats in the front. There is plenty of storage in the back for groceries, camping gear or whatever you would like.

I got this car to add more room for our growing family. I love that we can all fit into it along with the kids' friends and can all ride safely together. I love the trunk space for strollers and baby gear. When we put the back seat down, which is very easy to do, we can haul all sorts of large items. We yard sale and buy lots of furniture so this was a great quality for our lifestyle. I also like that it's a 3/4 ton making it powerful enough to haul trailers if we need to. Living in a winter climate four wheel drive was important and this car handles like a champ in the snow. I love the storage space in the compartments. With kids I was worried about the upholstery and being able to clean it. It cleans up great with some water and upholstery cleaner.
